Description

Lucy Marinn is a glass artist living in mystical, beautiful, Friday Harbor, Washington. She is stunned and blindsided by the most bitter kind of betrayal: her fiancé Kevin has left her. His new lover is Lucy's own sister. Lucy's bitterness over being dumped is multiplied by the fact that she has constantly made the wrong choices in her romantic life. Facing the severe disapproval of Lucy's parents, Kevin asks his friend Sam Nolan, a local vineyard owner on San Juan Island, to "romance" Lucy and hopefully loosen her up and get her over her anger. Complications ensue when Sam and Lucy begin to fall in love, Kevin has second thoughts, and Lucy discovers that the new relationship in her life began under false pretenses. Questions about love, loyalty, old patterns, mistakes, and new beginnings are explored as Lucy learns that some things in life—even after being broken—can be made into something new and beautiful. Rainshadow Road is the second book in Lisa Kleypas's Friday Harbor series.

Four young ladies enter London society with one necessary goal:they must use their feminine wit and wiles to find a husband. So they band together, and a daring husband-hunting scheme is born.<...

RAINSHADOW ROAD A little romance and a little magic make for a surprising page turner as a glass artist falls for a vintner on an island in the Puget Sound.It comes as quite a shock when Kevin tells Lucy their relationship is over.

Review: Rainshadow Road (Friday Harbor #2) I was due for a light-hearted sappy romance and this definitely fit the bill. I've never actually read anything by Liss Kleypas so this was my first foray into her brilliant realm of romance and I ...

Review: Rainshadow Road (Friday Harbor #2) I guess you never know how much you adore something until it's gone. Well, that's what happened to me with LK books. I always adored her reads, but it's been ages since I read one new book from her. I ...
